KACHE: I’M LOOKING FORWARD TO THE NEW SEASON

- Kachunga speaks to #HTTV ahead of the new season- Attacker talks recovery & previews trip to Accrington- Listen to his interview below

Elias Kachunga spoke about the extra efforts he's put in over the close season in order to be fully fit for pre-season.

The 26 year-old attacker was speaking to #HTTV ahead of his side’s second pre-season game away at Accrington Stanley.

‘Kache’ picked up an injury in December during Town’s 4-1 win at Watford and was unlucky to pick up a second injury in just his second game back away at Newcastle following a bad tackle.

The DR Congo international spoke about the extra work he's been doing over the summer and his happiness at being back involved with the team as he nears a return to action.

Speaking to #HTTV, Elias Kachunga commented:

“The last couple of months haven’t been the easiest for me having two injuries. It was a long way to come back and now I’m happy to be back with the team and train with the team, it’s so much fun to be around them.

“It was good, and the team was playing good games before my first injury. This was unlucky, but the second one was hard because I came straight into the first eleven, get the trust from the manager and try to help the team, then you get such a bad foul. It’s the past now and I’m looking forward to the new season and to help the team.

“I had a little break, maybe a week away, to take my head away from things. I want to work straight away to be fit for the pre-season. It’s not the easiest time to be injured working in your holiday times when you see the other guys enjoying their lives, but sometimes you have to go through the hard times as it makes you stronger.

“I’m always happy when I see nice comments under my pictures because it gives me a lift to work harder and the happiness to see me back on the pitch. It’s nice that the supporters stay behind me and it gives me a lot of energy."
